The Four Cs

Diamond Rarity

Diamond

At Helzberg Diamonds, we pride ourselves on having extremely strict standards for diamond quality - especially when it comes to the cut of our diamonds. We stand behind every diamond that goes into every piece of our jewelry, ensuring that it lives up to the standards we have upheld since 1915.

The basics of diamonds has always come down to the 4Cs - cut, color, clarity and carat weight.

Cut: The cut of a diamond affects how well a diamond returns light back to the viewer's eye. A well cut diamond will appear brilliant and fiery.

Color: A diamond's color is a measure of the stone's whiteness, meaning it is actually measuring the lack of color a diamond has.

Clarity: The clarity of a diamond refers to the presence (or lack) of imperfections. Generally, the more imperfections (or inclusions) a diamond has, the lower the clarity.

Carat Weight: A carat specifically measures a diamond's weight. Because of its rarity, one larger diamond is more valuable than a combination of smaller diamonds.

My husband bought two of these beauties for my wedding bands. One to go on each side on my 1 carat princess solitaire engagement ring. I have 2 carats on my finger and it sparkles so much!!! I get compliments all the time. Great quality, and the people at Helzberg are so helpful and nice!

When my wife and I got married just over 5years ago we didn't have a lot of money. We were young andf just out of college so I bought the best ring I could for the money I had (not much). About 2years ago I took her into our local Helzberg and we upgraded her to a Sophia signiture ring. At the time she said she didn't want a band because she thought the Sophia was enough by itself. I however have been wanting to get her a band to go with the ring ever since. I found this one yesterday just browsing through the store and I had to get it. She won't get it until X-mas but I can hardly wait to give it to her!

I have the gorgeous CAROLINE engagement ring that I've worn for a year after being married. I was convinced that it was stunning and beautiful enough alone but I got sick of people thinking I was only ENGAGED and not married so we just purchased this band. WOW, this set has got to be the most beautiful set I've ever, ever seen! The band is so comfortable and very impressive! Again, the Helzberg staff is fantastic and I feel like they are friends more than sales reps..........!!!

My husband knows that I like simple, classic elegance. He chose this as our wedding band and it is the perfect compliment to my engagement ring. I actually wear it everywhere. The sparkle lights up my eye and my heart. This was the perfect choice for a woman who is on the go - demanding job with lots of travel and typing, who loves to cook and garden. This can take it and look good doing it!
